Unashamed, he put his arms around the man when he dashed up on the veranda and asked a multitude of questions. Bob—that was the horse’s name—knew Johnny whenever he went into the stable; there was no doubt about that, for the little horse would turn around in his stall and whinny at the sound of the boy’s step or voice.
